CBS NorthStar, the developers of the hospitality industry’s first iPad omnichannel ordering solution NorthStar Order Entry, announced today that the latest version of the software will give restaurant operators the ability to add a JukeBox feature to their Order Entry-equipped tableside ordering devices.

In a partnership with DisruptiveApps, developers of the popular iJukebox service, CBS NorthStar developed the ability for customers to launch an interactive jukebox that enables them to purchase songs from a customized playlist to enjoy while dining, and add the request fee directly to their bill. This feature continues the company’s pursuit of developing an omnichannel ordering solution that creates the ultimate guest experience in restaurants.

“We’re excited for our partnership with Custom Business Solutions,” says DisruptiveApps CEO Chip Selley. “Their Order Entry software has raised the standard for ordering platforms. This is exactly the type of innovation the iJukebox API is built for.” Art Julian, CEO of CBS added, “Typically, the restaurant owner has a traditional POS, and tacks on web ordering, loyalty, order at the table, and other components. The CBS Order Entry platform bundles these and other functions together in one convenient software package to streamline the business and create the most convenient and enjoyable guest experience. Integration with the iJukebox API platform delivers the ultimate customizable guest experience while opening an additional revenue stream for the restaurant owner.”

With the iJukebox API, any third party technology provider can create its own innovative and profitable commercial music service while complying with music performance and licensing requirements. DisruptiveApps created its API because many technology companies endeavor to innovate the music experience in the restaurant and retail industry, but none of them provide such services to a mobile device or tablet in a compliant manner. iJukebox is the only fully licensed API platform for third parties to build their own interactive streaming music service.

NorthStar Order Entry has been a pioneering force in the POS space since its induction in 2011. Its multi-channel approach was a quick favorite with restaurant operators as it consolidated many features within one ordering software including a traditional POS interface, a guest-facing ordering interface, kiosk ordering mode, and integrated web and mobile ordering. The JukeBox feature adds additional functionality to help create the ultimate dining experience.

Headquartered in Irvine, Cal., Custom Business Solutions has been the hospitality industry’s Point of Sale leaders since 1994. Providing the latest technology products and services to the industry, CBS’s NorthStar suite of products pushes the limits of convention and welcomes restaurants to the future of Point of Sale. Combined with its full 24/7 Support, CBS brings something truly innovative to the table. Custom Business Solutions is a company built by restaurateurs for restaurateurs.
